boehner's house passed 30 repeals of obama care. more out of touch nonsense that the country rejected. recently they passed a bill pretending to withhold pay raises from congress, but of course that's something they constitutionally can't do. and president obama says it's time to get serious. and it is. but republicans show no signs of seriously addressing the pain ahead for the middle class in this country. and it is about the middle class. and then there is simpson/bowles, which i think is a total fraud, and we shouldn't be listening to people who have, number one, retirement security and health care security for the rest of their lives. they're the wrong people to listen to. they're doing a lot of grandstanding. but they shouldn't get much attention. more commentary coming on simpson/bowles in just a moment. get your cell phones out. i want to know what you think. tonight's question. will the republicans allow the sequester to destroy the middle class? text "a" for yes. text b for no to 67622. you can always go to our blog at ed.

i want to start on the issue of obama care. governor jindal, you seem to be bucking the trend among republicans. a lot of republican governors are saying we're going to go with what the president wants, expands medicaid rules, which is our option under the medicaid plan. we'll have to pay money but the federal government will pay more of it. you're saying, no, i'm not going to do that. other republicans are saying yes, you should. what do you know they don't know. >> one thing, every governor has to make the decision best know their state. it will cost louisiana taxpayers over a billion dollars in the next years. the president said doesn't make sense to put more people in the medicaid program without reforming the program. he was right in 2009. we have offered multiple times to meet with the president. we've offered to give flexibility on eligibility, benefit design, premium assistance, not a one size fits all approach. in louisiana alone, as many as 180,000 people would be moved from private insurance to medicaid under this ex
